With the price of both land & cattle, it’s nigh on impossible to get this kind of loan if you don’t already have hefty collateral (land and/or cattle) to put up

This will raise your blood pressure for sure. Infuriating! Good on the folks organizing around this & fighting for clean drinking water for everyone.

Savannah Standing Bear’s family and friends have heard plenty of rumors, but not many answers. It’s been eight months since she disappeared from the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. The latest from an #MMIP series in collaboration with @ict-news.bsky.social ⬇️ buff.ly/uyIDKr8

when its definitely not a hostage situation

MYTH: Data centers don’t strain the power grid. FACT: These facilities consume power at an industrial scale, creating new demand pressures that strains grids. The IEA projects their global electricity demand could exceed 1,000 TWh by 2026 - enough to power South Dakota for 85 years! #datacenters

Hey Larry, don’t be a thug. Maybe allow some healthy discussion around our state’s water pollution?

The packers are laughing all the way to the bank & shopping for another vacation home. #breakupthepackers

South Dakota needs to pay attention because : "Now approximately 27 percent of farmers rely on healthcare from the marketplace, which is about triple the national average for the rest of the population." This will ripple through our communities #rural #healthcare #ruralhealthcare

Because holiday cheer starts wearing heels 👠while standing in the TSA line or running to change concourses 🤣. These dudes all think they’re Don Draper apple.news/A_6Rvp2cjRtG...

Melissa Tran came here on a Green Card at age 11. She's since raised 4 kids, started a business, & is a beloved member of the Hagerstown community. Trump is deporting her, despite a judge saying she poses no threat. Is she the "worst of the worst"? Do you feel safer yet?

We love to see good news about #solarpower & #agricutlure from the good folks at @ieefa-northamerica.bsky.social ! www.wxpr.org/food-and-agr... #renewables #solarenergy

Rocky Mountain Power says last week's massive, multi-utility power outage began within its Wyoming electrical service territory, but warned it "will take time" to provide details. Industry officials speculate there will be a federal investigation.

Being the head of DHS has given Noem a larger pot of #taxpayer dollars to spend on friends. I'd say staggeringly corrupt, but it's Noem so it's to be expected. But that doesn't mean it should be tolerated. Also - on a horse at Mt Rushmore...🧀 🙄 southdakotasearchlight.com/2025/11/14/f...

Starbucks workers are ON STRIKE today. Don't cross the picket line! And donate to their strike fund.

“Before the war, when I heard the rain, I used to lie in bed feeling warm & happy. Now, when it rains, I jump up to check the tent, to make sure the water isn’t coming in.” With their homes reduced to rubble, many Palestinians in Gaza prepare for another difficult winter, Esraa Abo Qamar reports.

What the hell is this??? A “clean CR” this is not! I hope both parties raise hell over this. #shutdown #corruption

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.

The amortization will kill ya. Bet the banks love this idea.

More #SNAP confusion. If you're having a hard time following this continuing story, so is everyone else. Fund partial, fund total, take it all back, fund partial? This is not how government is supposed to function. #hunger

The threats! These folks have been working for 41 days without pay. How about some empathy??? apple.news/A9vRwTxvZQAS...

Nonprofits in Wyoming are struggling to meet spiking demand amidst federal cuts, the government shutdown and shrinking resources. People are struggling to heat their homes or put food on the table. - @WyoFile wyofile.com/it-sucks-so-...

The administration had asked the justices last week to intervene and temporarily halt the requirement to fully fund SNAP, but that move ultimately didn’t change the outcome.

This is banana pants. Does this apply to states that were funding it themselves? US Senators don’t know either. This isn’t governance.

What the hell is going on? Does anyone know? #SNAP #hunger

I have been emailing them about this issue with no response. None. Would be great if they gave a damn about our Armed Forces members. They seem to take people’s lives lightly

Christmas isn't a possibility for many this year. Trump's response? "I don't want to hear about the affordability."

I hope they’re training more ghosts for this Christmas Eve

And no help from the state. #SNAP #hunger #SouthDakota

Thinking again how perverse it is that Musk was given a $1T salary as his cuts to USAID has led to 600,000 deaths. What a shameful world.

There is some justice in this world! The best part: "The jury determined that the launching of the 12-inch deli sandwich from what the government described as “point-blank range” was not an attempt to cause injury." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u... #sandwichguy

And this is what I heard @mikiesherrill.bsky.social say: We have "to try to address the things that are scaring people, to try to make your life a little bit better, to try to just bring some rationality and sanity to a world that right now isn’t making a lot of sense.”

“We want to turn the page past the divisiveness, the angriness, and just focus on brass tacks, good policy, and governance" That was how @abigailspanberger.com began her campaign. From last year: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

A win! A federal judge has ruled that the White House must once again provide American Sign Language interpreters during press briefings. The U.S. District Judge Amir Ali emphasized that these briefings inform Americans about critical

We have plenty of evidence that carbon capture doesn't work. Our government is wasting all this money on a scam.

Another win! 🎉 Mikie Sherrill has won the New Jersey governor’s race!

“We — as his eldest son, grandchildren and great-grandchildren — believe that now is the time to follow in his footsteps and stand for the values he truly wished to share with us and all Americans: compassion, inclusiveness and justice for all,” they wrote. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/a...

The Wyoming Low Income Energy Assistance Program can’t act on 3,529 applications received since the program ran out of money in mid-October due to the government shutdown, though officials estimate the need is much higher. - @WyoFile wyofile.com/low-income-w...

There's a lot to unpack in this article. #SouthDakota should be taking care of its people. Also, how has the legislative budget committee not informed the Governor of Feeding South Dakota's funding request? He's literally working on his budget now. That is incredibly disappointing. #hunger #SNAP

Tribal communities are under acute pressure when #SNAP benefits run out tomorrow. #hunger #foodinsecurity

12 million tons of #soybeans from US soybean #farmers is not enough to repair the broken market. China has been buying soybeans all along - just not from us. During the trade war, they have been buying soybeans from Brazil & Argentina.

For many tribes, access to food is a treaty right, meaning the potential loss of funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is yet another violation of trust and treaty obligations during the government #shutdown. Via @ict-news.bsky.social buff.ly/kiERKO3

Good example of how Senator Rounds isn’t standing up for his constituents in South Dakota. Quite the failure. #usabeef #argentina

Even if the whole damn ballroom is actually paid for with private funds (though that’s just outright corruption), who’s paying to rebuild the East Wing & the offices it held? Where are those people working now? #taxpayers #whitehouse
